Description
In our classroom, we did a Do Now this morning that involved our students changing the text of a div tag in JavaScript from "something" to "something else". They, being the growth hackers that they are, proceeded to change the text in html 🤦🏻♀️ instead of writing $("div").text("something else");. It'd be useful to add the ability to lock editing in certain panels. Looks like this is possible in Ace with editor.setReadOnly(true) (https://github.com/ajaxorg/ace/issues/406).

Research direction
Start by locating the Ace editor setup and review the linked Ace read-only API. Determine how the classroom's individual panels are selected, then verify that selected panels cannot be edited while other panels remain editable. Done means the requested panel-level locking works for the described classroom exercise.
